Message From the Director

As we begin our 35th consecutive summer, Middle States Soccer Camp has consolidated from 7 weeks into 4 so that all of our sessions will be more focused and intense. Once again, there will be a specific theme each week:

We will be running two GOALSCORING/SPECIALIZED GOALKEEPING CAMPS, which emphasize playing in the final third and finishing:

• June 22-26 at Eastern University in St. David’s, PA, and 
• July 27-31 at St. Andrew’s School in Middletown, DE. 

St. Andrew’s School (July 20-25) is also the location of our PREMIER PLAYER/ GOALKEEPER CAMP for boys and girls, many of whom have aspirations to play in college. 

August 3-7 is the date of our PRE-SEASON TRAINING CAMP at Westtown School in Westtown, PA. This demanding week is an excellent opportunity to get ready for the fall season.

We have re-organized our personnel and added a number of new coaches, particularly college coaches, to provide a better experience in all respects for our campers. Our recently appointed Director of Coaching is Drew Hoffman, Men’s Soccer Coach at Washington College (Chestertown, MD). Drew is in charge of all training and staff assignments. Our Site Directors are Matt Zipin, Boys Soccer Coach at Germantown Friends School (Philadelphia, PA) and Brian Derrickson, Boys and Girls Soccer Coach at Middletown High School (Middletown, DE). Matt will be in charge of our two Pennsylvania sites (Eastern and Westtown), while Brian will coordinate the activities at St. Andrew’s. Peri Holmes is beginning her first full year as our Office Manager. She will be more than happy to assist with registration or with any other concerns that anyone might have.

We are excited about the 2008 season and look forward to
having you with us.
